Prologue
Malevolence, Mystery and the Monarchy. I know it all to well but was far too intrigued in the world above me, out of reach for an orphan who wanders the streets. The royals. How could anyone be born so blessed and lucky? My father used to tell me they were born in golden spoons, fame and infinite wealth. Along comes power to rule over the kingdom and its people but, they too aren't an exception to darkness, treachery and sin. The secrets within the palace so twisted and full of mystery. The neighboring nations think our kingdom is golden and true when it is only full of misery. I witnessed all the dark truths the royals try to hide in the tall gates of the palace firsthand. I was once afraid and at their mercy but nobody saw what was coming. I am ready to fight fire with fire to burn the kingdom to ashes, to make the royals kneel down on their feet. I will make them pay for everything I had lost. This is for Will and I and everyone who failed to see the day that is to come. The day the Kingdom of Dohmnall Veneray will fall by the hands of Amarah Verena Lysandra of Droit. After all, revenge will always taste the sweetest.
